Philosophy

This is really a page devoted to debunking anti-Christian philosophies.

Skepticism

"As a politician, [the Skeptic] will cry out that war is a waste of life, and then, as a philosopher, that all life is waste of time." - G. K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy

Nihilism

"All the will-worshippers, from Nietzsche to Mr. Davidson, are really quite empty of volition. They cannot will, they can hardly wish. And if any one wants a proof of this, it can be found quite easily. It can be found in this fact: that they always talk of will as something that expands and breaks out. But it is quite the opposite. Every act of will is an act of self-limitation. To desire action is to desire limitation. In that sense every act is an act of self-sacrifice. When you choose anything, you reject everything else. That objection, which men of this school used to make to the act of marriage, is really an objection to every act. Every act is an irrevocable selection and exclusion. Just as when you marry one woman you give up all the others, so when you take one course of action you give up all the other courses." -- G. K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy
